Now you too can be like the good folks in the U.S. government! Just like your favorite elected officials, make your opponent pull out their hair by creating big, dumb problems that probably cost too much! Stymie your opponent by removing their minions! Create endless resources out of thin air! Win the game by throwing down wave after wave of corrupted clowns! The fun never stops with Big Corrupt Washington Priest!

In all seriousness, though... this has felt competitive, if not great. Most games are nailbiters (except vs. Control Priest; you generate value WAY more quickly than your opponent, so most of the time you blow them out of the water), but it's refreshing to play a Priest deck that actually has a clearly defined endgame strategy.

The deck is pretty straightforward: play more big, dumb things than your opponent can remove. If you survive to the midgame, your big taunts usually beat midrange and slower fast decks (e.g. DR DH, Elemental Shaman, Rush Warrior); if necessary, you can finish them off with corrupted clowns. If you're in a control matchup, your wincon is endless clowns. Against aggro, hard mulligan for all your removal and pray that you have enough to stay alive till your Lightshower Elementals and Blademaster Samuro + Apotheosis clear can bridge you to the endgame (Idol of Y'Shaarj, Blood of G'huun, Scrapyard Colossus, and Carnival Clown + Raise Dead + Y'Shaarj, the Defiler).
